View allI'm 24 years old and married. On Saturday morning, I noticed a small pimple on my breast, and when I pressed it to remove the pus, I noticed some white and clear stuff leaking out. When I checked the other breast, it was also leaking when pressed. I've also been dealing with a cold and cough for about a month, and I've been massaging my body with oil daily from my neck to my stomach. Could this leaking be related to me touching or massaging my breasts daily? What's going on?

Can you have PCOS but still have regular periods? My ultrasound just mentioned I have bilateral polycystic ovaries, not PCOS or PCOD. What does that mean?
Bilateral polycystic ovaries, also known as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), is a hormonal condition that affects the ovaries. It occurs when the ovaries produce too many androgens, which are hormones that prevent follicles from maturing and releasing eggs. This results in the ovaries becoming enlarged and containing many small cysts. PCOS is a common condition that affects women of reproductive age. Symptoms include: Irregular or missed periods Excess hair growth Acne Weight gain Darkening of the skin Skin tags Thinning hair

I'm really confused about my pregnancy test results. I took a Prega News test and there was only one line, but I noticed that the HCG absorbent paper turned pink after about 3 minutes. My period is supposed to start on the 28th of this month. I even took the test yesterday and it came back negative. Does the pink color on the absorbent paper mean there's HCG hormone present?
Check for pregnancy aftre missing regular period for more than a week and visit Obstetrician for appropriate management,those tests could be false positive at times
